Now dip the wand into the soap and take it back out, blow gently and voila! Your integer array is sorted! Wow, only if it was that easy huh? Well it can be with a simple straight forward demonstration of bubblesorting. In this entry I will attempt to quickly show you a simple bubblesort you can do at home and in your own projects. It may even help you pass ...
Amortization... it is the process of accounting for, and usually decreasing, an amount of money over a period of time. You can amortize a mortgage or various types of loans, and you can amortize assets based on their value and what their value will be in so many periods of time. Many newbies on our boards have asked about this very project as part of the computer science courses and ...
A node... a singular entity found drifting in space. So you throw out the tractor beam and bring it aboard. Safe right? After all, what can a simple node do? Little did you realize that the node, when combined with others, could form an organized group with a singular purpose... TO ASSIMILATE YOU! Ok, perhaps I am going a bit overboard with the whole Borg analogy. But when you think ...
Have you ever sat at the kitchen table where you mom made you a big stack of waffles only to stare at the squares and realize it could be a matrix? Young child programmers do all the time! Heck you might have even written in random numbers using syrup into each square before eating it all up. Skyhawk133 wanted me to make a video on this very subject and while ...

No wonder they sent ...
One of the funnest things about being fluent in multiple languages is porting code from one language to another or in my case, porting a piece of code to 6 or 7 languages and allowing any newbie the opportunity to learn algorithms despite their language. It also makes it great to see the differences between languages and some challenges (as we will see with our Java example). On this entry ...
